@badbucket.bsky.social Hey Conner! I emailed you a work inquiry. Not sure if it went to spam. Came from yourseveredhand@gmail.com. I'm also on Discord @Sam_Seer.

Read Rise of the Blood Ohms yesterday - you definitely put all this into practice. Like most things done well, it’s harder than it looks!

It looks awesome!

A giant mass of blogs linked to/from Explorers Design, the blog that hosted the 2025 Bloggie Awards in early 2026.

Fatherfog 0e Once upon a time, the land was full of hope and the people told tales of happily ever after. Then the Fog spilled forth, wrapping its nebulous tendrils over all we hold dear. With it came monstrositie...

Anyone else read Fatherfog yet?

New fairytale horror RPG from Tuesday Knight Games. Cool to see the Mothership crew take on fantasy.

Haunting! I want more tone-heavy yet legible maps like these

Vines and crystals!

Would this be a good fit for the megadungeon at the heart of a HMTW campaign?

Like HMTW Book + The Castle Automatic = Campaign?

Sounds like an alternate City Quest. Dreams and visions of this spectacular architecture, gardens, an artist-king. The thorn of a “demon lover”. I’d love to have that as an option, instead of the technological intrusion of Bastion.

Fantastic and inspiring. Makes me want to dig out Yeats and write a Myth about something “slouching towards [the Seat of Power] to be born”. Any more of these in your drafts?

How I feel getting paired against @jdragsky.bsky.social in the first round of The Bloggies:

😂 My kids' box of kinetic sand now lives on top of the refrigerator. I think they've finally forgotten it exists.

😂 I've made so many design drafts that are like, "The game is a conversation. The Referee describes a situation and the Players respond. They may roll dice." But where's the game??

I think Mythic Bastionland is onto something where the game = the setting = the content + lots of Ref guidance.

My Dream RPG In search of mechanical-narrative coherence.

Been thinking about @explorersdesign.bsky.social's recent post ("Against Dominant Mechanics") and what we can strip away to maximize the RPG experience.

Yes, there's a backhoe in this.

@prismaticwasteland.com O Ostrich Lord, you inspired another Blogwagon. Let's see your Rule of Three.

The new Bastionland Podcast series is so good. I was daydreaming about my own "rule of three" and thought: why not make a blogpost about it? And why not make it thing?

Join the blogwagon! What's your Rule of Three?

Thanks for saying so. A Pattern Language is one of my favorite books— this vision of what life can be. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it in my OSR feed. Such a great idea.

Please do! It might be obvious, but the patterns I reference at the bottom don’t exist yet. Something for me or others to write.

You've started something, you mad wizard. My contribution is below.

@sean.tuesdayknightgames.com I’m starting a small business (non-RPG) and your early blog posts are rattling in my head (“Don’t wake up fucked”). Also just read Good to Great, which talks about finding your golden metric - “profit per X”. Can be anything. What might X be for a tabletop publisher?
